Frequently Asked Questions

What is loan amortization?

Loan amortization is the process of paying off a loan with regular payments over time. Each payment covers both interest and principal, with the interest portion decreasing and principal portion increasing over the loan term.

How do extra payments affect my loan?

Extra payments reduce your principal balance faster, which decreases the total interest paid and can shorten your loan term. Even small extra payments can make a significant difference over time.

Should I make one-time or recurring extra payments?

Recurring payments provide consistent savings and faster payoff. One-time payments are great for applying windfalls (like tax refunds). Both strategies are effective - choose what fits your budget.

Is this calculator accurate for all loan types?

This calculator is designed for standard installment loans with fixed interest rates (like mortgages, auto loans, or personal loans). It may not be accurate for credit cards, adjustable-rate loans, or loans with balloon payments.
